Ogden’s warming record since 1948
Not what a typical year looks like, but how the typical year has changed. Each stripe is one complete year’s average temperature at the station, 1948 to 2025, colored against the mean of those years: blue for cooler years, red for warmer ones. No trend line is fitted to them: the latest stretch of complete years with no gap over 10 years is 1999–2025, only 27 years (a trend needs at least 30).
Ogden rainfall by month

Frequently asked
- What is the hottest month in Ogden?
- July is Ogden's hottest month, with the highest average daily high of the year. The month-by-month table above shows Ogden's exact average high and low for each month, based on the 1991–2020 climate normals — the standard 30-year reference period meteorologists use.
- What is the coldest month in Ogden?
- January is Ogden's coldest month, with the lowest average daily low of the year. The averages-by-month chart above gives the exact average high and low for every month, so you can see how cold a typical winter day runs.
- How much does it rain in Ogden?
- Ogden's total annual precipitation and its wettest and driest months are shown in the rainfall-by-month section above. Those figures are 1991–2020 normals — the average monthly precipitation total across that 30-year window — so they reflect a typical year rather than any single wet or dry season.
- What months are best to visit Ogden?
- The most comfortable months in Ogden are usually the shoulder seasons — spring and fall — when temperatures sit between the summer peak and winter low and rainfall is moderate. Compare the average high, low, and precipitation for each month in the table above to pick the window that fits the weather you want.
- Has Ogden gotten hotter?
- There isn't enough data to say. The warming-stripes chart above plots Ogden's annual mean temperature for every complete year of station data from 1948 to 2025, but no trend line is fitted: the latest stretch of complete years with no gap over 10 years is 1999–2025, only 27 years (a trend needs at least 30). A shorter or broken record can't separate a climate trend from normal year-to-year swings.
- What is the record high temperature in Ogden?
- Ogden's all-time record high — the hottest single day in the station record — is shown in the records section above, along with the date it occurred. Records are drawn from the nearest long-term weather station's full daily history, which begins in 1948, so they capture the most extreme heat on record, not just a typical summer day.
- What is the record low temperature in Ogden?
- Ogden's all-time record low and the date it was set appear in the records section above. Like the record high, it comes from the station's full daily history back to 1948, so it reflects the coldest day on record rather than an average winter low.
